In this episode, we read the short story “The tinder box” by Hans Christian Anderson.
Though this is a fairy tale, it’s probably not suitable for children under the age of 13.

Om att mataffärer slänger saker som kunder vill köpa, om mina tankar kring detta. Det måste finnas sätt som det går att rädda mat förutom "kort datum - quick sale" det måste förbättras kring lagar och regler som gör att mer mat kan räddas!! Sånt otroligt slöseri med jordens resurser för att bara i slutändan landa i en container. 

Svensk youtuber som dumpster divear mycket, ganska informativt för att se hur mycket perfekt mat som slängs:

Join us on a special trip to the Two Oceans Aquarium in Cape Town, where we'll explore the amazing underwater world. Discover colourful fish, funny penguins, and graceful rays as we learn about the ocean and why it's important to protect it. Get ready for an exciting adventure filled with incredible sea creatures and the beauty of nature.

"Welcome to our podcast, Playful English Proficiency!

I'm your host, Adalet, and today we're going on an amazing adventure to the Two Oceans Aquarium in Cape Town, South Africa. Get ready to explore the underwater world and meet some incredible sea animals!

The aquarium is in Cape Town, where you can see a beautiful big mountain called Table Mountain. It's called the Two Oceans Aquarium because two oceans meet here near Cape Town: the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean.

Inside the aquarium, I saw lots of bright tropical fish, like clownfish and pretty pink anemones. They looked so beautiful!

I also saw some funny penguins. There were penguins from South Africa called African penguins, and they were really noisy! They walked around and made loud noises, like donkeys. I love their adorable little waddle.

Next, I found some penguins called rock hoppers. Now, they jumped on rocks just like their name. It was so fun to watch them! Later, they were swimming in a big tank, and it looked like they were flying underwater!"

So you crave the challenge and impact of a leadership position?

Here's your roadmap:

1. Self-Discovery: Before diving in, take stock. What kind of leader are you? What industry ignites your passion? Analyze your strengths and target roles that leverage them. Online leadership quizzes and career assessments can be helpful tools.

2. Network Like a Pro: Leadership roles often come through connections.  Beef up your online presence (LinkedIn) and attend industry events.  Build genuine relationships with leaders you admire. Don't underestimate the power of informational interviews – pick the brains of successful leaders without asking for a job directly.

3. Craft a Compelling Narrative:  Your resume and cover letter are your story. Showcase leadership experiences, quantifying achievements with data (increased sales by X%, improved team efficiency by Y%). Tailor your resume to each position, highlighting skills relevant to the specific role.

4. Go Beyond the Job Board: Executive-level roles often fly under the radar.  Explore executive search firms specializing in your industry.  These firms connect qualified candidates with hidden opportunities. Network with recruiters who understand your leadership niche.

5. Sharpen Your Interview Edge:  Leadership interviews are about more than qualifications. They assess your strategic thinking, communication style, and ability to inspire.  Practice common interview questions and prepare insightful questions for the interviewer.  Remember, you're interviewing them too!

Bonus Tip: Many leadership roles require strong public speaking skills. Take a class or join a Toastmasters club to hone your ability to articulate your vision and captivate an audience.

Ready to embark on your leadership journey?  By meticulously crafting your personal brand, actively networking, and refining your interview skills, you'll be well on your way to securing the leadership role you deserve.

When you' re camping, don't try and put up a tent unless the ground is completely level.
Choose campsites with a good variety of facilities and entertainment in case the weather is terrible and you can't spend much time outdoors.
If you wane to explore the countryside and you're hiking during the day, be sure to have a small backpack for water, maps, lunch, etc.
